On Saturday (December 30), the award-winning DJ (real name David Anthony Love Jr.) took to social media where he shared that, after a year-long battle with cancer, he has been given a clean bill of health. He also explained why fans are just learning about his health concerns.
“God is great! 3 days ago, I found out that I’m cancer free! Been dealing with it all year while I was doing everything I was doing for hip hop 50,” he began. “I had 2 surgeries and never said anything publicly about what I was going through, I’m not an attention whore, so I didn’t want to say anything, so that it didn’t look like i wanted pity.”
He continued, “But now that it’s over, I figure I let my fans and friends know, I’m very happy, this year I did a lot, but come 2024, I’m getting even crazier than I did in 2023!! Thank you God! #kidcapri #partyking #therealLOVE #happynewyear #happyholidays.”

“YOU HAVE SO MUCH MORE OF GODS WORK TO DO MY BRO. BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL FAMILY202more [fire emoji],” commented Doug E. Fresh.
